Website of the day: The Adventurists

Things you might also like

As the sun desperately tries to poke it’s face through the clouds and banish the winter blues for another year, it’s likely that you might also be entering that season.

The emails start, then the texts, then the Facebook updates. They all say the same thing: “Sponsor me, please.”

It's likely to be a marathon request over the next couple of weeks and we’re always slightly envious of those adventurous types who have put in the time and the training to tackle one of the items on many people’s to-do list of life.

But what if we told you that we’d found something that could possibly hit the top of that list?

At theadventurists.com you’ll find the kind of sponsored events that make a marathon look just a little bit pedestrian.

Our favourite is probably the Mongol Rally – 10,000 miles across half the globe in a car only your grandparents would consider sporty.

Now, that’s an adventure.
